Description

Alley Russo takes a job as an unpaid intern at a publishing house in New York City. She's desperate to make it in the industry and sees this opportunity as her chance to get her manuscript onto the desk of an experienced editor. However, things take a strange turn when she meets Walker Reade, the infamous author who is looking for someone to help him finish his latest novel. The trial period involves a series of absurd challenges, including a .44 magnum, peacocks, and cocaine. Alley survives this ordeal and is invited to stay at Reade's compound in the Colorado Rockies. As she tries to coax the novel out of Walker page-by-page, Alley battles his procrastination, substance abuse, mounting debt, and casual gunplay. As the job begins to take a toll on her psyche, Alley realizes she's alone with a drug-addicted literary icon who may never produce another novel - and her fate may already be sealed.
